NIZAMI BAHMANOV: "SHUSHA MONUMENT NOT TO BE CONSTRUCTED IN YEREVAN"
Today, Azerbaijan
Jan 17 2007
"I do not believe that Armenians claim on building monument dedicated
to Shusha in Yerevan will turn to reality. XXI century is not the
century of war, but this is the century of peace and economy. If
they take this step, it will cause the protest of all international
organizations," the chief of Nagorno Karabakh Azerbaijani community
Nizami Behmanov told.
He said that the referendum held in Nagorno Karabakh caused the
reaction of some famous international organizations especially OSCE
Minsk group co-chairs, EU, CE, US State Department and NATO.
"We were the witness of the cases that some monuments were laid and
then removed," he added.
The chief of Azerbaijani delegation in PACE Samad Seyidov told the
APA that Armenia has unconstructive position and does its best to
exert negative influence on the negotiations.
"Azerbaijani delegation will take active part in the discussions of
Armenia’s PACE commitments and will express its position. Robert
Kocharyan’s support separatist Nagorno Karabakh regime and his
congratulations on the 15th anniversary of the occupation of Shusha
are violations of PACE commitments," Seyidov said.
He also stated that several ceremonies were held, books about the
history of the conflict were distributed to the parliamentarians in
the frame of PACE events.
As APA reports, Yerevan major’s office decided to construct monument
dedicated the occupation day of Shusha and tender was announced.
